The Gavel is the progressive news source of Boston College, pioneering Web-based, multimedia journalism on campus. The Gavel adds another dimension to campus debate on issues affecting Boston College and beyond. We are unafraid to challenge the status quo, and will never cease to champion the needs of BC students. We look forward to continuing BC’s legacy of forming men and women for others.
We are partially funded by the Center for American Progress and the College Democrats of Boston College. We are, however, editorially independent.
